Backed by over 30 years of nutritional expertise from apetito and Wiltshire Farm Foods, our chef-crafted, dietitian-approved meals are designed to reduce risk, save time, and ensure consistent quality.

We offer a wide range of options to meet specialist dietary requirements, helping care providers deliver safe, reliable nutrition every day, with no contracts, free delivery, and exclusive professional pricing.

The REFRESH program:

The project, REFRESH, is a major new study focused on improving how undernutrition is managed in older adults living in care homes. Undernutrition increases the risk of poor health, falls, infections, and loss of independence—but better nutritional care can enhance wellbeing, reduce pressure on staff, and lower associated costs.

By participating in the program you can benefit from:

Fully funded nutrition training and tailored support for your care staff

All associated study costs covered (including oral nutritional supplements, fortified ingredients, staff time)

Direct contribution to evidence that could inform future national policy and guidance

Unfortunately due to a technoical issue we are unable to post the video of the recording

Skills for Care - Size and structure of the adult social care sector and workforce in England

June 29, 2026

This week, we published our annual ‘Size and structure of the adult social care sector and workforce in England’ report . It provides a comprehensive overview of the size and composition of the adult social care workforce and includes information relating to workforce supply and demand, international recruitment, and statistics on the wider economy. Read more about the report in the workforce intelligence section below. The Government is seeking views on reforms to zero hours and similar contracts to implement measures in the Employment Rights Act 2025 to end one-sided flexibility. The consultation is your opportunity to share feedback on how the reforms, including the right to guaranteed hours, reasonable notice, and short notice payments, should be implemented and ensure that the views of the adult social care sector are represented. The consultation closes on Tuesday 25 August at 23:59. You can read the impact assessments on the reforms to inform your response : Impact assessment: Right to Guaranteed Hours and Impact assessment: ZHC - Right to Reasonable Notice of Shift Patterns and Payment for Shifts Cancelled, Moved or Curtailed at Short Notice
